CEGICAP

What CEGICAP does

CEGICAP (Centro Global de Investigación para la Capacitación) is a private Peruvian educational institution headquartered in the Jesús María district of Lima, operating a direct-to-consumer online learning platform that delivers asynchronous specialization programs and diplomas primarily to working professionals across Spanish-speaking markets. The company runs a catalog of 438+ programs organized across categories including Administration, Law, Education, Nursing, Pharmacy, Management, Languages, Engineering, Nutrition, Psychology, Health, Systems/IT, and Medical Technology, with notable concentrations in healthcare subfields (clinical pharmacy, ICU nursing, medical emergencies, rehabilitation, geriatrics) and marketing/business disciplines (digital marketing, strategic marketing, sales management). Programs are typically 12 months long, comprise 720 hours of instruction, and carry 24 credits, with certification issued through university partnerships (notably Universidad Nacional Daniel Alcides Carrión / UNDAC) and professional colleges.

The underlying technology is a virtual learning management system with 24/7 online classroom access, self-instructional modules, and a personal tutor consultation layer, delivered through two primary surfaces: the CEGICAP Virtual platform (cegicap.com) and the Zona Estudiantes student portal (zona.cegicap.edu.pe). The platform is presented as a 100% remote, asynchronous modality, with no disclosed AI, adaptive learning, or advanced personalization features. Content is designed by what the company describes as 'first-level specialist professors,' though no faculty credentials are publicly detailed.

Revenue is generated almost entirely from individual program tuition, priced between S/ 900 and S/ 1,800 per program, with scholarship discounts (10% first program, 20% second or referral), installment plans via Visa/MasterCard/PayPal (up to 12 payments), and a self-serve enrollment funnel on the website that is converted via phone-based academic advisors and a 68+ person network of educational representatives across Peru. The company has 34 employees, no provincial branches, no disclosed funding, no parent company, and no public listing. Marketing is conducted entirely through digital channels — website, Facebook, Twitter/X, LinkedIn, Instagram, TikTok, WhatsApp, and email — and the company has stated a vision to expand beyond Peru into Spanish-speaking and foreign markets, though no international offices or operational presence outside Lima are evident.
